The Yemeni Armed Forces carried out two military operations in support of the oppressed Palestinian and Lebanese peoples and in solidarity with their Resistance, as well as in response to the US and British aggression on Yemen, announced spokesperson Brigadier General Yahya Saree on Thursday.

The first operation, conducted jointly by the YAF's missile, UAV, and naval forces, targeted the American oil tanker OLYMPIC SPIRIT in the Red Sea with 11 ballistic missiles and two drones, Saree said, confirming that the strikes were precise and severe.

As for the second operation carried out by the YAF's missile force, it targeted the ST. JOHN ship in the Indian Ocean with a cruise missile, resulting in a direct hit, the spokesperson mentioned.

According to Brigadier Saree, the ship was targeted after its mother company violated the entry ban imposed by the YAF on the Israeli-occupied ports of Palestine.

The YAF will not cease their operations in the declared naval operational zones until the Israeli aggression and blockade on Gaza and the aggression on Lebanon are ended, the spokesperson underlined.

Touching on the YAF's naval operations in the Red and Arabian seas, the leader of the Ansar Allah movement, Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, pointed out in his speech on the one-year anniversary of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood that "one of the important outcomes of Yemeni operations is preventing the Israeli enemy from navigating the Red Sea, Gulf of Aden, Bab al-Mandab, and the Arabian Sea."
